This is the story of a little girl lost in a very troubled world. Sent away by her mother, abandoned by a loveless father, and landing in a troubled marriage, RoseMarie MacNeil faced brutality and abuse. She tried so hard to make her world seem okay, always pretending things would get better, but growing up, they never did. Not until she made her own path to escape. While raising her four children, she strove fearlessly against the odds to become an independent young woman.

Women today need to be cautious. Never put yourself in a situation where you lose control of yourself and have to depend on any man or woman. The only person you can depend on is you! Take care of you first. RoseMarie's story shows that no one has to stay in a toxic marriage or relationship. There is always a way out. She hopes reading about her life experiences will help others realize they don't have to settle for whoever comes their way. Everyone deserves to be truly loved and treated with respect.

Daphne Dragonfly has a lively nature that is kind, caring, and sharing.

Charles Darwin pointed out that the future evolution of mankind cannot happen through the continuation of the "survival of fittest" ideology. It lies in the courage to stand up like the first animal did and move in a vertical dimension, whereas developing kindness, compassion, and empathy are the hallmark of evolution and truly an inward revolution. This goal can be achieved by delving deeper into ourselves through the simple process of meditation and mindfulness. In this book you will learn the pathway to your inner vastness (i.e., Samadhi, Enlightenment or the "Mercury space") and gain answers to becoming "Souls From Mercury."

We have been endowed with a symbolic brain that helps us adapt to and survive in our natural and man-made worlds. However it is open to both true and false beliefs both of which have impacts on our well-being. Supernatural beliefs may lead to disastrous consequences but continue to exist because they actually serve human survival through their reliance on faith and reduction of stress. So our symbolic brain's readiness for supernatural beliefs is a mixed blessing-but a blessing nevertheless.

The Only Authentic of Persuasion: the Agenda-Spin Model (Authors Press, 2022 )

Man and woman are the persuading animals.

There is no overriding issue more important in most people's daily life, life's pleasures and all of political matters than persuasion.

Many, if not most, matters are largely wholly related to persuasion, defined in this work on the Agenda-Spin theory, as the struggle of people to determine for their chosen audiences: 1. What we talk about and 2. What it means.

Persuasion is not the only determinant in life, and there are some matters mostly outside of persuasive control, such as congenital illness, physical attacks, weather, death, etc. Even these, however, will have elements of choice and certainly vary in spin and/or interpretation.

This work, unlike virtually every other work on this topic, examines persuasion as within the power of the persuader, not as the result of inexorable demands of reality, except in the cases listed above.

Imagine a visit from a friend of yours that has already died but received approval to return to earth from Heaven for one more day.

Mollie envisioned that situation in the middle of the night when an angel appeared before her as a bright light and explained an amazing scenario in which her deceased fiancé returns from Heaven on Christmas Day in order to complete her marriage and accept the consequences. Mollie then awoke from her dream, doubtful of what just happened. Even though she could still see the bright light and the image of the angel, she was sure it was all just a dream. So, she turned on the light next to her bed and only the bright image remained as if she was staring at the sun.

As her eyes adjusted, she looked at the table next to her bed and saw the picture of her fiancé in a frame in the usual place. However, this time there was an object that was never there before. It was a gold band. So, she picked it up to examine and inside the band she noticed her three initials and the words Love, Mollie. It was the band she placed on the ring finger of her deceased fiancé before he was buried. Could it be true? Would he return on Christmas?

Four others would return from Heaven on that very same Christmas. Based upon the miracles performed on that day, the earth will never be the same. Heaven is real.

Southern California, 2019. Eight-year-old African girl Daisy, adopted by a Caucasian gay couple David and Isiah, was feeling excited for her first presentation day at her local elementary school. However, her excitement and presentation were brutally dismissed when the class bully, Billy, and her other classmates shamed her for having a family dynamic that didn't exemplify the popular heteronormative model. She navigated through fighting the internal and external conflicts associated with her parents' relationship to the point where she had a breakdown. With the help of her guidance counselor, she was able to inform others that casting judgment based on one's differences is hurtful, wrong, and demeaning. In the end, all we need is love, and love doesn't see race, color, or gender.
